Fluorescence tunable carbon dots for nuclear dynamics and gastrointestinal imaging in live zebrafish and their toxicity evaluation by cardio-craniofacial disfunction assessment.

Sub-cellular organelle anomalies are frequently observed in diseases such as cancer. Early and precise diagnosis of these alterations can be crucial for patient outcomes. However, current diagnostic tools using conventional organic dyes or metal quantum dots face limitations, including poor biocompatibility, stringent storage conditions, limited solubility in aqueous media, and slow staining speeds.

Self-assembly of cationic surfactant in choline chloride-based deep eutectic solvents: structural solvation and dynamics.

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have gained popularity in various applications due to their improved environmental sustainability and biodegradability. For the present study, several polyhydric alcohols, including ethylene glycol (EG), diethylene glycol (DEG), triethylene glycol (TEG), and glycerol (Gly), have been used as hydrogen bond donors (HBDs) and choline chloride (ChCl) as a hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) in a fixed molar ratio to form a homogenous and stable DES. Controlled water mixing into such neat DESs has always been thought to be a quick and efficient method to tune the chemical and thermodynamic properties of DESs.

Comparison of dexmedetomidine, ketamine, and magnesium sulfate for the prevention of emergence agitation following sevoflurane-based anesthesia in pediatric cardiac catheterization.

Background: Emergence agitation (EA) is non-purposeful agitation that occurs during the early stages of general anesthesia recovery. This randomized, double-blinded trial aimed to compare the effect of dexmedetomidine, ketamine, and magnesium sulfate on the severity of EA following sevoflurane-based anesthesia in pediatric cardiac catheterization. We examined the fixed doses and assessed the severity of agitation using the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium Scale (PAED) score.

Enhanced Singlet Oxygen Generation in Aggregates of Naphthalene-Fused BODIPY and Its Application in Photodynamic Therapy.

Several reports are available on aggregation-induced emission and its applications in biomedical imaging and other material sciences. However, enhancement of singlet oxygen generation in nanoaggregates is rarely reported. Here, we report the synthesis of , which absorbs at 661 nm (monomer) with a high molar absorption coefficient.
